Essential Gene Ammons
Boss Tenor.Oddly enough I've been listening to this album all week. 
REL with Integrated Amp connection Question
Oh, so the REL connects to my existing speaker terminals that are already connected from my amplifier to speaker. So in a sense I'd have to spades connected to each terminal. I think I've got it now. 
REL with Integrated Amp connection Question
Chazzbo:Lets assume for a second I don't incorporate the sub for home theatre, how would the Speakers/REL and Krell be connected? Maybe I'm oldschool but I always thought the speakers would be connected to the subwoofer (via speaker binding posts)... 
Why are we so passive?
It would be hilarious to speak with engineers some 20-40 years ago and ask them where they think we'd be in 2007. Fastforward...and the same people want tubes, vinyl, horn's...which really begs to ask a question...where will we be in 20 years and ... 
Why are we so passive?
Active speakers make the most sense on all technical levels. The audio community doesn't seek the best engineering principles to acheive this, they rely on sex appeal with a sense of pride and complication.This link with Bob Stuart talking about a... 
Why are we so passive?
Because this hobby is less about sound and technical sense and more to do about personality, ego and self reflection through one's system. 
Rug for room ascoustics
Cytocylce,Can you recommend any products for ceiling corners? Keeping in mind I have a living room and not a dedicated audio worship room. 
Speaker Hum through Krell 400xi/Yamaha RX-V2700
Elevick, I don't think the Yamaha can process digital sound through the tape loop; to be honest I don't have the slightest idea why i'd ever wanna use a tape loop. 
Speaker Hum through Krell 400xi/Yamaha RX-V2700
Hi Jerry, If you haven't bought the RX-V2700 yet its better to wait until September for the RX-V3800...it will support HDMI 1.3 scale analog signals to 1080p with ABT scalers and support DD TrueHD, DTS MA decoding.

nm...stupid me...I had plastic on the two ground leads...it was so small i couldn't see it. I have since removed it and the buzz is gone. 
Polk LSi9...good integrated amp to drive these???
Well Hello!I use to own a pair of Polk Audio LSi9's the only reason I sold them was for space. If anybody tells you those speakers are mid-fi tell em to check their ears at the door! What an underrated speaker; they really beat the tar out of some... 
MUSEATEX CDD
Hello, For what its worth I bought a fully decked out CDD John himself had been using for a year or two. It had a recently replaced CD mechanism (one of the very last he kept privately) and John told me he would just add stuff to the transport ove... 
Krell 400xi Damping Factor
Hi Jason, What had me concerned was that 290 wpc "spec" was at 8ohm's but the 4ohm spec was only 350 not the printed 400 wpc. I was also spooked when one reviewer had the amplifier shut down at 1/3rd volume. I do enjoy the amplifier's sound, the h...

DTS HD Decoding in Blu Ray players?
No Kenny, They can be sent via HDMI as Multi channel PCM and work with existing 7.1 receivers that have HDMI 1.1 repeaters in them. The hard part is finding a player which has DTS HD MA decoded within it. I can only find an LG universal player whi...
